**Upstate NY DB1 B20vtec Build**
Well after reading and commenting on hundreds of build threads, i think i have enough BT experience to make one that wont completely tank.
my name is Seamus, i live in upstate NY albany area. 518 hollaaa lol. pretty good local scene. ive been doing the honda thing for about 12 years now, when i was 11 years old my sisters BF at the time had a JR supercharged ej8, and ive kinda been hooked ever since. ive been involved in a lot of local cars/builds, and i guess i know what im doing lol. enough about me i feel stupid even writing this.....
ive actually had the car for a couple years and will take you through some random snaps up to present. ive secured a good job so things shouldnt take as long as they used to.
ive never really seen a db1 that wasnt just low and clean and i wanted to embrace the clean and fast and functional theme with the car. any way ill have plenty of time and space to babble on about nothing, so on to the pile.
this is a list of current mods, and ill get to future mods later on.

ill be painting the whole thing, i had to replace all the passenger side panels from a collision with a guardrail from the previous owner, last thing to do is the QP i just ordered and it will be off for a full color change to midori.
yah at some point, im pretty stoked to get the quarterpanel on and get it painted. started tearing down the mugens tonight, cleaned and sanded one barrel and polished the lip, also cleaned all the crud and what not off the face, getting ready to send the faces out for powder coat, im between candy purple and candy teal.
great man.. ur doing such a great job man.. the mugen mr5s on a old da/ef is a Classic Look.. timeless.. nice touch..
Good day.. and Holla from the west coast
